    Why did you post this in the Retro section. I'm sure it still happens today.

    Yes. I was thinking of Littewoods which took over from them.

    Was Oxendales another one?
    I remember looking through those catalogues back in the day,and even then,the clothes looked dreadfully old fashioned and unattractive.

    The models must've been paid loads of £££ to smile and look so happy to be wearing such drab attire.

    Believe it or not but Oxendales is still going strong.

    I often wondered if the models actually went to exotic locations for the film shoots or were they kind of photo-shopped onto an exotic background.

    Ah yes but what would you see today with Brazilians and landing strips etc all being in fashion?

    Back in the late 80s/early 90s you could always get a sneaky look of unkempt Bush through the lacy knickers!

    *i was born in late 70s so this is where most of my sex education came from!
